1) we're working on an "ODBC connector", which enables gretl to fetch
data from DBMSes like Oracle, MySQL, Postgres etcetera. The basic
infrastructure is already in CVS: the missing bits are (a) documentation
(b) thorough testing (c) a reasonable GUI interface. IMO, chances are
this can be done within the end of May and the ODBC facility (marked as
"experimental") can be included in 1.7.5;
in principle this sounds cool, but what actually is the pressing need
for it? Or to put it differently: should 1.7.5 really be delayed for
that reason?
IMO, once this is done we may release 1.7.5 and concentrate on kalman +
quantile regression (and more).
let me repeat my other question: do you want/need suggestions for the
Kalman "API"/syntax/interface?
thanks,
